U.S. BOARD IS SUCCESSFUL IN LABOR DISPUTES 349 Cases Involving 55.000 Employes Handled in This Area. BY WILLIAM 11. MGALGHEY Tim <tafT Writer Working quietly but effectively tn an inconspicuous office at the Federal building, the regional labor board has sucoeeeded this summer in preventing any grave labor trouble m this district. Although strikes and walkouts j have tied up industry and caused j privation in many parts of the nation in the last few months, labor ills in this region have been cured j for the most part before the situation has become serious. Not that the Indianapolis area is free from labor disputes. In the short life of the local board 349 cases have been handled, affecting the livelihood of 55.000 employes. Thirty-one cases, involving about 2.500 men in all. still are pending before the regional labor board. If previous cases are an able indica- j tion. these employes will be back at j work before long. Leader Shuns Limelight New cases are bound to arise' from time to time, however, as this board has jurisdiction over many j industrial centers. The local offices j Include in this region Indiana, eastern Illinois, northern Kentucky j and western Ohio. Because of the reticence of the board members to appear in the j limelight, very little appears in the j press about their activities Though prophets in their own city are j slow to recognize them, high tribute | was paid the conciliators in Cincinnati. a scene of many labor disputes In recent months. “Not often is tribute paid that hard working and long suffering class of citizens, the personnel ol j ihe regional labor board.” an article. | in a Cincinnati publication said. Section 7-A Again “They must work under extraordinary handicaps, not only those represented by the often extravagant demands of workers and the frequent obstinacy of employers, but i also that worst handicap of all. the; ambiguous section 7-A of the NRA. which mainly is responsible for their j labors. “They must seek compromise fair ; to both sides at a time of wide- i spread labor troubles, when tempers : are running high and the relations! between management and workers! are more fluid than they ever have been before. “Their responsibilities are tremendous; their authority practically ! nil. “They are called upon, usually without warning, to display the labors of Hercules, the patience of j Job and the gift of compromise of j Henry Clay." Compromises Attempted When labor trouble breaks out, the board usually sends G. T. Watson. energetic executive secretary, or j Robert Fox, federal commissioner of ■ conciliation, to attempt to effect a compromise between the manage-! ment and the workers. The results of their eflorts arc presented to the board, composed of : five representatives of labor and five j from the employer group. The board is headed by an impartial chairman. Dr. Earl R. Beckner. professor of economics at Butler university. The effectiveness of the board's work in Cincinnati has led the publication to conclude. “The regional labor board, considered in the abstract, is far from an ideal institution. Yet in many instances it is only thanks to them that an unsat- ! isfactorv situation is saved from be- j coming intolerable.”

NORTH SIDE STREET MOVES TO SOUTH

* JSaL M *• ■— < V' A \ -Jxhm ¥wk&L

When citv officials decree that a north side street shall become a south ;de street, the net result is an improvement for Virginia avenue. Laborers from the federal emergency relief administration were busy today laying bricks from Northwestern avenue on Virginia avenue, south of the Alabama street track elevation. Northwestern avenue is being repaved. South side residents have appealed to the works board for several years to improve a 719-foot stretch on Virginia avenue, which was paved with wooden blocks. A hard rainfall frequently tore out some of the blocks and made the street rough. By using the second-hand bricks from Northwestern avenue and by utilizing FERA labor, anew brick stretch will be open to traffic in a few weeks, Wilbur Winship, street commisisoner, said.
